Means and Proportions as Random Variables Sampling distribution Normal curve approximation

Definitions A statistic is a numerical summary of a sample. Its value may differ for different samples. A parameter is a numerical summary of a population, which is a (unknown) constant. The sampling distribution of a statistic is the distribution of possible values of the statistic for repeated random samples of the same size taken from a population.

Sample Proportion In a random sample of size n, the sample proportion is the proportion of, say women, out of the sample. For example, if there are 8 women in a sample of 10 students, then the sample proportion for women is =8/10=0.8. The population proportion is denoted as p. Q: Identify each of the following as a statistic or a parameter: 1) p 2) .

Sampling Distribution of Mean: Standard deviation: Standard error, the estimated standard deviation:

Normal Curve Approximation for Sample Proportion The sampling distribution of can be approximated by a normal distribution with the mean p and standard deviation WHEN both np > 5 and n(1-p) > 5. Empirical Rule

Example: Lottery Suppose that probability is p=0.2 that a person purchasing an instant lottery ticket wins money, and this probability holds for every ticket purchased. Consider all random samples of 64 purchased tickets, and let be the sample proportion of winning tickets in a sample of 64 tickets.

What is the average (sample) proportion of winning tickets in 64 randomly selected tickets? What is the standard deviation of the sample pro-portion ? What is the probability that there are more than 32 winning tickets in 64 randomly selected tickets? Using Empirical Rule to fill the blanks: In about 95% of all random samples of 64 purchased tickets, the proportion of winning tickets will be between ____ and ____.

Sample Mean X The sample mean of a random sample of size n is the average in that sample. Let m and s denote the population mean and standard deviation of the population sampled.

Sampling Distribution of X Mean: Standard deviation: Standard error, the estimated standard deviation:

Normal Curve Approximation for Sample Mean The sampling distribution of the sample mean, from a random sample of size n (where n is at least 30) can be approximated by a normal distribution with the mean m and standard deviation . Empirical Rule

Example: Speed at 880 Vehicle speeds at highway 880 are believed to have mean m=60 mph. The speeds for a randomly selected sample of n=36 vehicles at highway 880 were recorded and its standard deviation is s=6 mph. What is the mean and standard error of (the sampling distribution of) sample mean? Use the Empirical Rule to fill the blanks: For a random sample of 36 vehicles, there is about a 68% chance that the mean vehicle speed in the sample will be between ____ and ____.
